                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. PHIL GINGREY

                               of georgia

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, March 18, 2013

  Mr. GINGREY of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today with a heavy heart 
to honor the memory of Lonnie Lee Nutt, a City of Marietta, Georgia 
firefighter, and fallen hero. On the evening of March 7th--at the young 
age of 49--Nutt was in the line of duty, assisting the victim of a car 
accident when he tragically suffered a fatal heart attack.
   For nearly 20 years, Nutt selflessly served and protected his 
community as a firefighter, inspector, investigator, and most recently 
as a firefighter engineer.
   He was a tested veteran and deeply respected by his colleagues. But 
more importantly, he was a devoted husband to his wife Rosa, and loving 
father to his daughter Cassandra.
   Mr. Speaker, I extend my deepest felt condolences to his family and 
friends, his fellow firefighters, and the Marietta community for their 
loss during this most difficult time.
